The Policeman's Lot Is Not A Happy One

From Cairo, yesterday......you have to wonder; what will he choose, when the time comes?

  2. You wonder what the story is here. Mom kissing him goodbye? Stranger embracing stranger, hoping for kindness? Tactics, or pure emotion?

    Either way, I liked the contrast between the granny's emotion and the copper's emotionless expression.

  3. I confess, my mind was in the gutter:

    My read was, mum sending him off. And seeing how frumpy babushkas oft times end up, and seeing how he's off into a brotherhood of strapping young men, well ... what will he choose when mating time comes?
